CeladonThailand, Koh Samui

Accessed by a private road and situated just 300 metres from the ocean, Celadon is a tropical getaway that has been appointed to the very highest specifications. While just 25 minutes from the airport, this low-rise, contemporary residence blends smoothly into its lush jungle surroundings, offering you and your guests total escapism. Located on the north shore of Koh Samui, Celadon is a 15 minute drive to Maenam beach. Here you can find an array of eateries and scuba diving academies for exploring the island's magical underwater world. If you prefer a more solitary sunbathing experience, you can soak up the rays or take some shade under the palms of Bang Por beach, a 4-kilometre sandy stretch right on your doorstep. Home to some of the the best yoga and spa retreats in the world, Koh Samui is also a must-visit for wellness and pampering enthusiasts.

The striking angular white façade of the villa is nestled in the lush green forest, offset by the clear blue waters of the pool and ocean. No detail has been overlooked – the four double bedrooms all have en suites and private terraces, while the large al fresco dining area features a bar and poolside terrace for evening soirées, as well as a sunken seating area. The accommodation is very spacious, allowing your guests to enjoy total privacy in and around the villa. The neutral colour palette and oversized glass sliding doors maximise light and allow for seamless merging of the outdoor and indoor spaces.

Discover the very definition of paradise as you and your guests are taken care of by the on-site manager, and enjoy meals freshly prepared by your own personal chef. Spend lazy days soaking up the serenity of this peaceful location, swim leisurely laps in the infinity pool and take in the spectacular views as you enjoy a massage or yoga class on the terrace. Alternatively, if you're feeling energetic, nearby activities include boat trips, scuba diving and fishing trips.
